“A tax, BTW, which is half what it was before Daniels.”
Of course the tax is low - for now, after all he cashed out YOUR HIGHWAY and having billions of dollars to play with (from the sale) can even make a Democrat look fiscally responsible. The problem is that he also imposed a HUGE TAX on people that use that highway - once Cintra starts turning the screws, that residents and non-residents will be forced to cough up. We’ll see if his heroin-fix approach to the budget works to fool enough people to think that he’s some kind of a fiscal conservative. Hopefully it won’t and you guys can stew in his damage.
Sorry, but I’m really tired of paying for stuff that I don’t use: Wall Street bailouts, bank bailouts, WIC, 21st Century Scholars, food stamps, Section 8 housing, free cell phones for “the poor”, heating and utility assistance for “the poor”, free school lunches, free tuition, Medicaid, etc. My health insurance is set to go up again even though I’ve never yet filed a claim on it in order to pay for others.
If you don’t like the toll, don’t use the toll road. I wish I was given the same option with the programs above.
